OpenAI has reportedly turned to one of its biggest competitors in the AI arms race to support the training of its ChatGPT models.

Reports revealed that AI rivals Google and OpenAI struck a deal to provide OpenAI with Google’s cloud computing services.

Under the new deal, Google Cloud will provide additional computing capacity to help OpenAI train and run its AI models. For OpenAI, the partnership addresses growing demands for computing power as the company's annual revenue reached $10 billion as of June, according to sources familiar with the matter who spoke to Reuters.
